Hi
Thanks a lot for your script.
If the file name is only file name GE_20170222-153412.txt it's working fine.
The script is not working the file name as /db/files/GE_20170222-153412.txt
But in the path /db/files/ my files are as below.Since it's in HDFS file system.
Code:
-rw-r--r--   3 ffuser ffgrp    0 2017-03-29 02:51 /db/files/GE_20170222-153412.txt

Please help me.

Thanks
